To Do

A constantly evolving list (growing more than anything!) – sometimes specific, sometimes general. So much to see and do… My choice of destination is usually influenced by the following interests: historic sites, military history, natural wonders, wildlife in natural habitat, motorsport, sites of devastation, family connections, rail journeys, great places for road trips.

It is grouped by country/region in alphabetical order, with other experiences at the bottom. Some completed items predate this blog, though this isn’t a definitive list of all travel to date either.

Africa
See wildlife in the National Parks
Gorilla watching
See a sunrise and sunset in the desert (sorta did the sunset near Dubai, Sep 2010, but the sunrise failed miserably)
Maybe Kilimanjaro?

Germany
BerlinHamburg (departure point for ancestors leaving Poland)(Sep 2015)
Nurburgring
Drive the Autobahn, pref. in a German sports car (partially, in Sep 2010, though I don’t feel the diesel Renault counted)
Sites from WW2

Hi Hayley, As a more recent resident [15 years a newbie] of Waioneke – had great fun stumbling upon your blog just now. Loved the bucket list, great photies and ambling commentary. All power to you – best wishes.

Hi Hamish, many thanks for taking the time to read and comment! 15 years, well you’ll definitely be a local by now. I see you’re a creative professional, all the ruralness out there must be a great environment for that.

Hi…

I'm Hayley and I live in the beautiful city of Wellington NZ. Outside of my work as an IT programme manager I love to travel and exercise my creativity. This blog is a photo journal of my travel experiences, the big stuff and the small. Thanks for visiting!
